Installing Optical Contacts On Socket Side

Remove the dust boot right before plugging.

Check the proper condition of the contact.

At a force of 10 N (7.5 lb.) the springs installed in the connection point will be compressed. This leads to an increase in attenuation, which could lead to system impairment and system failure. Therefore a maximum force of 10 N (7.5 lb.) may be used to pull on optical waveguides at connection points.

1. Insert optical contact -B-  into the optical waveguide module until it is felt to engage, and check the optical contact is seated securely.
